Each weekday either Keith or one of our Sous Chefs cook made to order items, different each day, for our tenants and guests.  These meals are always popular and truly delicious.

Congratulations to Keith Childers and the entire Wiggins Place Dietary Team for a perfect Board of Health Inspection.  Great job!

February Birthday Bash

Each month we celebrate all of our tenants who have a birthday during a particular month.  It's a great excuse to get together, have cake and many laughs!

Tamir Goodman at Wiggins Place!

We welcomed sports star Tamir Goodman dubbed the "Jewish Jordan" to Wiggins Place recently to share his experiences with our tenants as a nationally recognized Baketball player and also about his current projects which he has been pursuing since announcing his retirement in 2009.   

 

Mr. Goodman currently devotes his time to the Haifa Hoops For Kids program, which raises money to help disadvantaged children in Israel attend basketball games.

 

Thank you, Tamir!

Also a very special thank you to David Markovich for coordinating Tamir's visit and making this very special treat happen for our Wiggins Place tenants.  We are so happy to have you as a volunteer at Wiggins Place, David.  You're the Best!

 

The Importance of Olive Oil during Chanukah

Rabbi Shmuli Friedman came in to  

Wiggins Place

to talk about the importance of olive oil during Chanukah. He showed us how to crush the whole olive and extract the juice.  He then proceeded to put it into a centrifuge to separate the juice into pulp and oil. The tenants made their own wicks out of cotton and the tenants were able to take some of the olive oil pressed in class home with them! 

It was a very interesting class that the tenants really enjoyed and they want Rabbi Friedman to return to make Matzo at Passover time.
